There are a lot better rom com's out there and there are tons of better Drew Barrymore films. This is a reasonable choice if you have nothing else to watch. There are a few clever lines and a few feel good moments. The premise rings true in that in 6 short weeks, a romantic summer fling can turn into a lifetime love.

Wow, Drew Barrymore is kinda vulgar, but it's ok when it's funny, and this is. It's a story of a couple trying to deal with trials and tribulations of a long distance relationship which ends up affecting both of them, all the while with comedy happening all around them. This is another movie that has been done before and done better, but it is a good time with a lot of laughs which is what you want from a comedy anyways, so definitely see it. Mia Statue.

This movie isn't a 14A movie after all, because what the actors/actresses did in this movie is more like "Rated R". But anyways, I thought the movie was alright. All it talks about is staying in the "Relationship Matters".

It has a great cast and moments that rise above standard romcom simplicity but it still can't escape from the formula's contrived predictability ; with an ending in particular that spoils any goodwill the film had worked towards.

Going the distance is it good romantic comedy about a couple that are separated by the jobs in trying to make it work for the relationship funny situations with a lot of great actors in it. Justin Long, drew Barrymore, Charlie Day, Jason Sudeikis, Christina Applegate and some other actors. B+ (2011)
